XML Post with PHP form works, jQuery .ajax does not -
i have simple php form posts xml data url, responds more xml. here is:
form action="[...]" method="post"> <textarea name="xml" rows="30" cols="100"> <rrequest version = '2.13'> <request> <command>update</command> <pd> <rid>1</rid> <extid>111111111</extid> </pd> </request> </rrequest> </textarea> <br> <input value="submit request" type="submit"> </form> this works beautifully. attempting implement same thing, using jquery. here code:
<script> $(document).ready(function() { $("#submit").click(function(){ var xml_data = $("#xml").val(); $.ajax({ type: "post", url: "[...]", data: xml_data, contenttype: "text/xml", datatype: "text", cache: false, success: function(data){ $("#xml").val(""); $("#xml").val(data); }, error: function(xhr, textstatus, errorthrown){ alert("it no works"); } }); }); }); </script> </head> <body> <textarea id="xml" rows="30" cols="100"> <rrequest version = '2.13'> <request> <command>update</command> <pd> <rid>1</rid> <extid>111111111</extid> </pd> </request> </rrequest> </textarea> <br> <input type="button" id="submit" /> this, however, not work. contact server, server returns bad request message, makes me think data being sent not correct. 2 textareas containing xml identical. appreciated.
i using jquery 2.1.3.
replace line
var xml_data = $("#xml").val(); with
var xml_data = {xml: $("#xml").val() }; upd: these parameters should removed .ajax() request:
contenttype: "text/xml", datatype: "text",
